Uh Oh!
Leak is getting worse, I stripped down to oil cooler whilst engine in.
. remove air filter and pipes
. remove carby
. remove foil air pipes
. remove hinges and boot lid
. remove thermostat
. remove throttle cable and pipe
. remove fan belt
. remove generator cables AFTER DISCONNECTING BATT
. remove coil cables
. remove fan housing
. reach in under the breast plate tinware and undo the 8mm bolts with open ended spanner - don't drop them!
. remove oil cooler
I changed seals. I had over tightened them. 5lbs torque is the setting!
I replaced them and re-assembled.
As you can see from pics, they were crushed originally!
....
Still a leak just not as bad.
